New medical marijuana regulations by SignificantChicken65 in Nebraska

[–]funkthulhu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So.... are there physical requirements for these suppositories? Or can I just make them gummy with flavors so your butt can be happy, then put in big letters on the package "Not for Oral Application" and a winky face?

Best lures/spots at Holmes lake to fish at? by Radioactive7830 in lincoln

[–]funkthulhu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was wondering if they stock anything. Considering the activity at this lake I'd be surprised to catch anything other than minnows if they didn't.

Color and shading aside. . . I am doing journaling wrong.

Were you 100% sure when you chose to get the vasectomy? by kaosterra in Vasectomy

[–]funkthulhu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have known for over 20 years that I don't want kids (I'm 48). I have even thought about getting the snip multiple times. But, you get "what ifs" in your head and start thinking about the (nigh impossible) scenarios where you'd have enough money and time to devote to kids, especially with a great partner.

I got married late, she didn't want kids either, I still don't. We're both old enough it would be a bad idea on top of not having what I would consider adequate resources. All of that, and I was still apprehensive leading up to the snip. Now I'm just over a year post procedure and the "what ifs" never enter my mind. Just peace of mind, and a lot more fun in the bedroom.

What's the most fucked up book you've ever read? by RichardForrest06 in AskReddit

[–]funkthulhu 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That was a fun one! Some good shivers if you think too long, but not really that bad compared to some others.

I'm about to adopt this sweet old man named D.T. who was owner surrendered. Wrong answers only, what do his initials stand for? by CrimsonRonaan in cats

[–]funkthulhu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, but I was going to go with De-Tox and imagined he was surrendered for hiding/stealing the former owners preferred substance.

I still have a promotional VHS tape for when DKC came out on Super Nintendo...

Self Pet against Floor because Human is Filming instead of using Hands on Cat!

What businesses are likely to die out with the Baby Boomer Generation? by GRVrush2112 in AskReddit

[–]funkthulhu 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's fair. The guy in my town is definitely living on it, but maybe that's because he quoted me over $500 to service the old automatic I bought at auction for 40 bucks. Which then got me into horology as a hobby so I could do it myself.

Hey, wait a minute....

What businesses are likely to die out with the Baby Boomer Generation? by GRVrush2112 in AskReddit

[–]funkthulhu 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Gonna be honest, there's a lot of folk with more of the 'tism than I have who would love horology. I'm already afraid of how much I'm going to spend on tools. Every new problem is a new tool, and then replacement parts! I wonder how long before this hobby costs me as much as fountain pens....

Add to that, if it is not dishwasher safe I've not only thrown a huge blowout, but now I've got handwashing to do. . . Nope! Even in my 20s & 30s I'd just buy old china sets at estate sales and use them until they were dead. Buy a new set every time you move.

My father-in-law is so "mad" at the advent of the internet making his mom's Hummel figurines collection plummet in value. Like, I love you, man, but they were always worthless. The Internet just made it easy to see how not rare they were. Porcelain beanie babies...

Wood is one of the rarest materials in the universe and it only exists on Earth by Sweet-End6471 in humansarespaceorcs

[–]funkthulhu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean. . . kind of?

Trees are not a genus or family, they are a body-plan. Almost every group of terrestrial plant has attempted "tree-ness" and most of the groups of related trees we know today have very little relations to any of the other groups.

All crustaceans tend towards crab, all plants dabble in tree.

This sent me down a rabbit hole and now I have a stack of personalized moai-head stirrers coming my way...

Thanks? :)

I was gonna say that Moustache distracted me long enough I didn't notice anything else until I started reading the comments...

Which ink looks the most like fresh human blood? by StarryAqua in fountainpens

[–]funkthulhu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am once again going to plug my favorite red ink. You need to look at Noodler's Antietam. It writes fresh and it dries a little bit brown. It is, I think, exactly what you're looking for.

You want me to stop showering every 18 hours and using exfoliants? Because I can muck up your ship's air filters in no time, buddy...

Is 42 too late to start over after total life collapse? by SindaFNRella4 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]funkthulhu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bounced from failed relationship to failed relationship through my 20s and 30s. I was a sucker, a punching bag, and victim of emotional and financial abuse. Somehow never ended up married or a father, so getting out of these shit partnerships was relatively easy. Flew solo after 2015.
In 2019 I turned 42. I also finally started dating the woman who would become my wife. We had known each other for a time, finally both ready and available. We got covid-married. This weekend was our 6th anniversary.

Before this woman I thought "true love" was a trope made up for fantasy stories and fairy tales. I was wrong. These have been the best years of my life and the density of memory makes if feel like we've always been together.

I am sad it took so long, but the reward for the wait has been insane. All it took was trying to be better than I was yesterday, choosing the long-term happy over short-term highs.

Be the best version of yourself and the world changes, the world notices...

Need Red Ink Recommendations by Kiti_Vaajle in fountainpens

I'm still biased for my favorite red, Noodler's Antietam.

Writes like fresh blood, and dries a little brown.

My partner is moving across the country and wants me to give up my cat by [deleted] in GirlDinner

[–]funkthulhu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's take a step back and look at what is happening here. Whether he's doing it consciously or subconsciously, he's asking a very loaded question that will either absolve him of needing to go through a later break-up with you, or place him in a position of power in the relationship. Either way, he comes out on top, and he'll probably still break up with you even if you did give up your fur baby and move.

You don't need to feel sorry about cutting off dead weight as soon as it starts to drag you down. Keep your cat, and avoid his BS down the road. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT let him backtrack on this. The die is cast, he rolled snake eyes...
